Rev. Mr.. Wo,
o few remarks.
A Joke on Barnum.

At q recent dinner, by the way, a story was
told of Barnum. HE Is a temperance man
now" said one of the party, "but remember
when he set up the drinks for distinguished
crowd. He didn't do it out of pure good ma
ture either. II was twenty-six years ago, at
the Profile House, in the Franconia noun
tains. Barnum was feeling pretty smart in
those days, and he had been playing his Jokes
and cute tricks rather freely about the house.
A lot of guests sat on the piazza of the hotel.
Among them were Commodore Vanderbilt,
William II. Vanderbilt, another oftho family,
Governor Gilmore's son, John HYDE the ar
fist, BarDum and q number of Others includ-
ing myself. Young Gilmore was lively
young chap then, but he has become min
lister since Gilmore put up the job and let
US into 1t. He twisted the talk around to
physical proves, and got Barnum to brag
plateau in front of the hotel was rail to
which horses were tied. Gilmore proposed
that we all start from the piazza and run to
the rail and that the last man to touch the rail
with his hand pay for the drinks for the
crowd. Everybody agreed, and we got Into
line, all except the Commodore, who sat ON
the piazza and gave the word. P. T. was live
ly and confident, and waited impatiently for
the word. The Commodore said go and
away went the greatest show on earth like
Jumbo In a sprint race. He took the lead
right away. Everybody else pretended to
run for all that was in them, but took care
not to get ahead of P. T. The Snowman got
there in great style, put his hand on the rail,
and turned in triumph. There stood the rest OF
the crowd in line behind him, not one of
them touching the rail. When lie heard the
Commodore roar, he took In the situation.
He was the only one who put his hand on the
rail at all. Barnum set them up, but he was
so mad that he couldn't tell plausible fairy
tale for a week"

KathIeen's Sensible Reply.

Apropos of the low-necked dress question,
the story is recalled of young Irish girl who
attended large ball in England years ago,
In the good old times" She was evident
ly from the country, and as she entered the
ballroom there was thrill of dismay when
it was discovered that there was marked dis
crepancy between the hem of her dress and
the top of her boot. Fashionable ladies blush
ed to the tips oftheir exposed shoulder blades,
and one of them finally demonstrated with
the wondering Kathleen: Her reply was
pertinent and should become historical !:

A Satisfactory EXPLANATION.

At certain debating society an English
doctor recently argued that the Irish were
naturally depraved aud dishonest race, and
In support of his position he adduced bis own
experience. He remarked that he had at
Manchester 800 Irish patients on bis books,
aud out of this number only thirty paid him
his fees. An Irishman rose when the doctor
sat down, and said: "Sor, there Is never an
phenomenon which does not admit of an ex-
PLANTATION. How, sor, can we explain the ex-
traordinary phenomenon to which the doc
tor has called our attention. He finds an
explanation In the natural depravity of the
Irish nature. /, sor, have another explana-
ton TO offer, and 1t is this: That the thirty
patients who paid him were the only ones
that recovered"

A WOman's Laugh.

Awoman has no natural grace more be.
witching than sweet laugh. 1t is like
the sound of flutes on water. 1t leaps from
her heart in clear, sparkling rill and the
heart that hears 1t feels as If bathed In the ex-
hilarating springs. Have you ever pursued
an unseen fugitive through the trees, led on
by her fairy laugh, now here, now there,
now found? We have. And we are pur-
sorrow, or irksome business and then we
turn away and listen, and hear It ringing
through the room like silver bell, with pow
er to scare away the evil spirit of mind.

You say that you will never change.

And It is easier to forget
Than to remember.

With heart and brain in need OF rest,

In peace upon your weary breast2
Will you remember?
When wrinkles mar my once fair brow,
Aud when my dark hair fades to white,
Then will you love me Just the same
As when my youthful eyes were bright?
VIII you remember
The stars shine clearly DER us now,
The sky above is fair. serene,
But in the tempest and the storm
Can upon your strong arm lean?

That time but strengthens love like ours ?

Amid theeverlasting flowers,

Living on the Wagon Pole.

When Emerson said glitch your wagon
to STAR" he meant, of course, that the
wheels of the wagon should roll on earth, but
that the forces which pulled it along should
be higher and nober than mere worldliness.
1t was good thought excellently expressed,
and when carried out 1t leads to success
There are some people, however, who in
their efforts to hitch their wagon to stars,
elevate themselves on the wagon pole until
they reach convenient clouds, upon which
they crawl and spend the rest of their lives
midway between heaven and earth. A man
who passes away his life in this suspended
condition is very curious character He
is just high enough 10 look down with cold,
aristocratic condescension on the rest of man.
kind, and he is just low enough down for
mankind to see that he is only an ordinary
member of the human race. 1t is not very
graceful position, and the people are generally
disposed TO criticise the man occupying it;
but the suspended genius. propped up by his
inordinate vanity, and blinded by the hail
ness of his surroundings, sees only himself,
and magines, like Alexander Selkirk, he is
monarch of all he surveys. All the time the
people below laugh at his antics, and the
angels above, doubtless, weep.

Just n Bit Too Previous.

A Chicago society youth recently attended
church with young lady on whom he was
particularly sweet. When the contribution
box started out on its rounds the young man
took a FIVE dollar gold piece out of his pocket
and displayed it in such way that the young
lady saw it. She mildly rebuAed him for his
extravaganza, but he said he often contribu-
ted that much, especially when in strange
churches. Watching his chance he slipped
the gold coin into his pocket and slyly took
out silver quarter which he as slyly dropped
the impression ON the young lady that her
beau was generous and held the church in
high esteem At the close of the services, as
was the custom of the church, the amount in
the box was announced. The total was 1915.
That young man has had no business in the
immediate neighborhood of that young lady's
house since that eyentful evening.

\ IS. OE l.. PAPER.

The Knights OF Labor are not doing
wise thing in establishing daily paper as
the organ of their order. Particularly is
the project injudicious when it is contem-
plated to vest the control and management
of the paper, not i'll skilled newspaper men,
but in board of editors, to be elected, and
which will be chosen, in all probability,
more Oh the score of personal popularity
than of peculiar fitness for the eXacting
duties which they will have to undergo.
The Knights of Labor treasury will have to
be a deep one and it will have to be fire.
quentIy replenished in order to successfully
stand the drain upon it which such paper
will necessarily make. 1t may well be
doubted whether, despite the canvassing
machinery which the order can bring into
play. if the organ can ever be made self
supporting to such degree that
it will at any time be independent
of the socety's treasury. While most OF
the members of the Knights of Labor are
reading men, but few of them subscribe to
more than one paper. Being intelligent
people they desire to keep well Informed
upon the news of the day as well as the
matters which affect their interests particu-
larry. For this reason a paper devoted ex-
clusively to labor and the socety's work
would hardly obtain a general circulation
among the knights, and falling that, its
only means of support would be the orders
purse, which could only be refilled by fire.
Quent assessments, an operation which,
bringing them no benefit, the knights
would soon tire of. The regular daily pa
perS furnish the Knights of Labor as much
news concerning subjects in which they are
especially interested as they care to have.
and in addition provide them with current
news from the four quarters of the globe
And, besides, from any paper conducted
with fairness and impartiality, such as the
GLOBE. for instance, the knights can be
sure of receiving considerate treatment and
warm advocacy of their actual rights. They
could obtain nothing more from the most
1arfi organ
